AD AD9260AS High-speed oversampling cmos adc with 16-bit resolution at a 2.5 mhz output word rate Datasheet

The AD9260 is a switched-capacitor ADC with a nominal fullscale input range of 4 V. It offers a differential input with 60 dB
of common-mode rejection of common-mode signals. The signal range of each differential input is ± 1 V centered on a 2.0 V
common-mode level.
The on-chip decimation filter is configured for maximum performance and flexibility. A series of three half-band FIR filter
stages provide 8× decimation filtering with 85 dB of stopband
attenuation and 0.004 dB of passband ripple. An onboard digital multiplexer allows the user to access data from the various
stages of the decimation filter.
The on-chip programmable reference and reference buffer amplifier are configured for maximum accuracy and flexibility. An
external reference can also be chosen to suit the user’s specific
dc accuracy and drift requirements.

The AD9260 operates on a single +5 V supply, typically consuming 585 mW of power. A power scaling circuit is provided
allowing the AD9260 to operate at power consumption levels as
low as 150 mW at reduced clock and data rates. The AD9260 is
available in a 44-lead MQFP package and is specified to operate
over the industrial temperature range.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
The AD9260 is fabricated on a very cost effective CMOS
process. High-speed, precision mixed-signal analog circuits are
combined with high-density digital filter circuits.
The AD9260 offers a complete single-chip 16-bit sampling
ADC with a 2.5 MHz output data rate in a 44-lead MQFP.
Selectable Internal Decimation Filtering—The AD9260
provides a high-performance decimation filter with 0.004 dB
passband ripple and 85 dB of stopband attenuation. The filter
is configurable with options for 1×, 2×, 4×, and 8× decimation.
Power Scaling—The AD9260 consumes a low 585 mW of power
at 16-bit resolution and 2.5 MHz output data rate. Its power
can be scaled down to as low as 150 mW at reduced clock rates.
Single Supply— Both of the analog and digital portions of the
AD9260 can operate off of a single +5 V supply simplifying
system power supply design. The digital logic will also accommodate a single +3 V supply for reduced power.

NOTE: The composite filter undecimated coefficients (i.e.,
impulse response) in the 4× decimation mode can be determined
by convolving the first stage filter taps with a “zero stuffed”
version of the second stage filter taps (i.e., insert one zero between samples). Similarly, the composite filter coefficients in the
8× decimation mode can be determined by convolving the taps
of the composite 4× decimation mode (as previously determined) with a “zero stuffed” version of the third stage filter taps
(i.e., insert three zeros between samples).

*Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only; functional operation of the
device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational
sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings
for extended periods may effect device reliability.
CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection.
Although the AD9260 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may
occur on devices subjected to high-energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD
precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

DEFINITIONS OF SPECIFICATION
APERTURE JITTER
INTEGRAL NONLINEARITY (INL)
Aperture jitter is the variation in aperture delay for successive
samples and is manifested as noise on the input to the A/D.
INL refers to the deviation of each individual code from a line
drawn from “negative full scale” through “positive full scale.”
The point used as “negative full scale” occurs 1/2 LSB before
the first code transition. “Positive full scale” is defined as a
level 1 1/2 LSB beyond the last code transition. The deviation
is measured from the middle of each particular code to the true
straight line.
SIGNAL-TO-NOISE AND DISTORTION (S/N+D, SINAD)
RATIO
S/N+D is the ratio of the rms value of the measured input signal
to the rms sum of all other spectral components below the
Nyquist frequency, including harmonics but excluding dc.
The value for S/N+D is expressed in decibels.
DIFFERENTIAL NONLINEARITY (DNL, NO MISSING
CODES)
EFFECTIVE NUMBER OF BITS (ENOB)
For a sine wave, SINAD can be expressed in terms of the number of bits. Using the following formula,
An ideal ADC exhibits code transitions that are exactly 1 LSB
apart. DNL is the deviation from this ideal value. Guaranteed
no missing codes to 14-bit resolution indicates that all 16384
codes, respectively, must be present over all operating ranges.
N = (SINAD – 1.76)/6.02
NOTE: Conventional INL and DNL measurements don’t really
apply to Σ∆ converters: the DNL looks continually better if
longer data records are taken. For the AD9260, INL and DNL
numbers are given as representative.
ZERO ERROR
it is possible to get a measure of performance expressed as N,
the effective number of bits.
Thus, effective number of bits for a device for sine wave inputs
at a given input frequency can be calculated directly from its
measured SINAD.
TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION (THD)
The major carry transition should occur for an analog value
1/2 LSB below VINA = VINB. Zero error is defined as the
deviation of the actual transition from that point.
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of the first six harmonic components to the rms value of the measured input signal and
is expressed as a percentage or in decibels.
GAIN ERROR
The first code transition should occur at an analog value
1/2 LSB above negative full scale. The last transition should
occur at an analog value 1 1/2 LSB below the nominal full scale.
Gain error is the deviation of the actual difference between first
and last code transitions and the ideal difference between first
and last code transitions.
SIGNAL-TO-NOISE RATIO (SNR)
SNR is the ratio of the rms value of the measured input signal to
the rms sum of all other spectral components below the Nyquist
frequency, excluding the first six harmonics and dc. The value
for SNR is expressed in decibels.
SPURIOUS FREE DYNAMIC RANGE (SFDR)
SFDR is the difference in dB between the rms amplitude of the
input signal and the peak spurious signal.
TEMPERATURE DRIFT
The temperature drift for zero error and gain error specifies the
maximum change from the initial (+25°C) value to the value at
TMIN or TMAX.
TWO-TONE SFDR
POWER SUPPLY REJECTION
The specification shows the maximum change in full scale from
the value with the supply at the minimum limit to the value with
the supply at its maximum limit.
The ratio of the rms value of either input tone to the rms value
of the peak spurious component. The peak spurious component
may or may not be an IMD product. May be reported in dBc
(i.e., degrades as signal level is lowered), or in dBFS (always
related back to converter full scale).

THEORY OF OPERATION
The AD9260 utilizes a new analog-to-digital converter architecture to combine sigma-delta techniques with a high-speed,
pipelined A/D converter. This topology allows the AD9260 to
offer the high dynamic range associated with sigma-delta converters while maintaining very wide input signal bandwidth
(1.25 MHz) at a very modest 8× oversampling ratio. Figure 53
provides a block diagram of the AD9260. The differential
analog input is fed into a second order, multibit sigma-delta
modulator. This modulator features a 5-bit flash quantizer and
5-bit feedback. In addition, a 12-bit pipelined A/D quantizes
the input to the 5-bit flash to greater accuracy. A special digital
modulation loop combines the output of the 12-bit pipelined
A/D with the delayed output of the 5-bit flash to produce the
equivalent response of a second order loop with a 12-bit
quantizer and 12-bit feedback. The combination of a second
order loop and multibit feedback provides inherent stability:
the AD9260 is not prone to idle tones or full-scale idiosyncracies sometimes associated with higher order single bit sigmadelta modulators.
The output of this 12-bit modulator is fed into the digital decimation filter. The voltage level on the MODE pin establishes
the configuration for the digital filter. The user may bring the
data out undecimated (at the clock rate), or at a decimation
factor of 2×, 4×, or a full 8×. The spectra for these four cases
are shown in Figures 5, 6, 7 and 8, all for a 100 kHz full-scale
input and 20 MHz clock. The spectra of the undecimated
output clearly shows the second order shaping characteristic of
the quantization noise as it rises at frequencies above 1.25 MHz.
The digital output driver register of the AD9260 features both
READ and CHIP SELECT pins to allow easy interfacing. The
digital supply of the AD9260 is designed to operate over a
2.7 V to 5.25 V supply range, though 3 V supplies are recommended to minimize digital noise on the board. A DATA
AVAILABLE pin allows the user to easily synchronize to the
converter’s decimated output data rate. OUT-OF-RANGE
(OTR) indication is given for an overflow in the pipelined A/D
converter or digital filters. A RESETB function is provided to
synchronize the converter’s decimated data and clear any overflow condition in the analog integrators.
An on-chip reference and reference buffer are included on the
AD9260. The reference can be configured in either a 2.5 V
mode (providing a 4 V pk-pk differential input full scale), a 1 V
mode (providing a 1.6 V pk-pk differential input full scale), or
programmed with an external resistor divider to provide any
voltage level between 1 V and 2.5 V. However, optimum noise and
distortion performance for the AD9260 can only be achieved with a
2.5 V reference as shown in Figure 46.
For users wishing to operate the part at reduced clock frequencies, the bias current of the AD9260 is designed to be scalable.
This scaling is accomplished through use of the proper external
resistor tied to the BIAS pin: the power can be reduced roughly
proportionately to clock frequency by as much as 75% (for clock
rates of 5 MHz). Refer to Figures 41–43 and 47–51 for characterization curves showing performance tradeoffs.
ANALOG INPUT AND REFERENCE OVERVIEW
The on-chip decimation filter provides excellent stopband rejection to suppress any stray input signal between 1.25 MHz and
18.75 MHz, substantially easing the requirements on any antialiasing filter for the analog input path. The decimation filters
are integrated with symmetric FIR filter structures, providing a
linear phase response and excellent passband flatness.
Figure 54, a simplified model of the AD9260, highlights the
relationship between the analog inputs, VINA, VINB and the
reference voltage VREF. Like the voltage applied to the top of
the resistor ladder in a flash A/D converter, the value VREF
defines the maximum input voltage to the A/D converter. An
internal reference buffer in the AD9260 scales the reference
voltage VREF before it is applied internally to the AD9260
–20–
REV. B
AD9260
A/D core. The scale factor of this reference buffer is 0.8. Consequently, the maximum input voltage to the A/D core is +0.8 ×
VREF. The minimum input voltage to the A/D core is automatically defined to be –0.8 × VREF. With this scale factor, the
maximum differential input span of 4 V p-p is obtained with a
VREF voltage of 2.5 V. A smaller differential input span may be
obtained by using a VREF voltage of less than 2.5 V at the
expense of ac performance (refer to Figure 46).

ANALOG INPUT OPERATION
The analog input structure of the AD9260 is optimized to meet
the performance requirements for some of the most demanding
communication and data acquisition applications. This input
structure is composed of a switched-capacitor network that
samples the input signal applied to pins VINA and VINB on
every rising edge of the CLK pin. The input switched capacitors are charged to the input voltage during each period of
CLK. The resulting charge, q, on these capacitors is equal to
C × VIN, where C is the input capacitor. The change in charge
on these capacitors, delta q, as the capacitors are charged from a
previous sample of the input signal to the next sample, is approximated in the following equation,
A/D CORE
delta q ~ C × deltaVN = C × (VN – VN–2)
VINB
where VN represents the present sample of the input signal and
VN–2 represents the sample taken two clock cycles earlier. The
average current flow into the input (provided from an external
source) is given in the following equation,

The voltage, VCORE, must satisfy the condition,

(5)
where T represents the period of CLK and fCLOCK represents the
frequency of CLK. Equations 4 and 5 provide simplifying approximations of the operation of the analog input structure of
the AD9260. A more exact, detailed description and analysis of
the input operation is provided below.
The AD9260 is implemented with a differential input structure.
This structure allows the common-mode level (average voltage
of the two input pins) of the input signal to be varied independently of the input span of the converter over a wide range, as
shown in Figure 44. Specifically, the input to the A/D core is
the difference of the voltages applied at the VINA and VINB
input pins. Therefore, the equation,

In addition to the limitations on the differential span of the
input signal indicated in Equation 2, an additional limitation is
placed on the inputs by the analog input structure of the AD9260.
The analog input structure bounds the valid operating range for
VINA and VINB. The condition,
AVSS +0.5 V < VINA < AVDD – 0.5 V
AVSS +0.5 V < VINB < AVDD + 0.5 V
(3)
where AVSS is nominally 0 V and AVDD is nominally +5 V,
defines this requirement. Thus the valid inputs for VINA and
VINB are any combination that satisfies both Equations 2 and
3. Note, the clock clamping method used in the differential
driver circuit shown in Figure 57 is sufficient for protecting the
AD9260 in an undervoltage condition.
For additional information showing the relationships between
VINA, VINB, VREF and the digital output of the AD9260, see
Table V.
Refer to Table IV for a summary of the various analog input
and reference configurations.
Figure 55. Detailed Analog Input Structure
Figure 55 illustrates the analog input structure of the AD9260.
For the moment, ignore the presence of the parasitic capacitors
CPA and CPB. The effects of these parasitic capacitors will be
discussed near the end of this section. The switched capacitors,
CS1 and CS2, sample the input voltages applied on pins VINA
and VINB. These capacitors are connected to input pins VINA
and VINB when CLK is low. When CLK rises, a sample of the
input signal is taken on capacitors CS1 and CS2. When CLK is
high, capacitors CS1 and CS2 are connected to the Analog
Modulator. The modulator precharges capacitors CS1 and CS2
to minimize the amount of charge required from any circuit
used in combination with the AD9260 to drive input pins VINA
and VINB. This reduces the input drive requirements of the
analog circuitry driving pins VINA and VINB. The Analog
Modulator precharges the voltages across capacitors CS1 and
CS2, approximately equal to a delayed version of the input
signal. When capacitors CS1 and CS2 are connected to input
pins VINA and VINB, the differential charge, Q(n), on these
capacitors is given in the following equation,
Q(n) = q1 – q2 = CS × VCORE
REV. B
–21–
(6)
AD9260
where q1 and q2 are the individual charges stored on capacitors
CS1 and CS2 respectively, and CS is the capacitance value of
CS1 and CS2. When capacitors CS1 and CS2 are connected to
the Analog Modulator during the preceding “precharge” clock
phase, the capacitors are precharged equal to an approximation
of a previous sample of the input signal. Consequently the
differential charge on these capacitors while CLK is high is
given in the following equation,
Q(n–1) = CS × VCORE(delay) + CS × Vdelta
(7)
where VCORE(delay) is the value of VCORE sampled during a
previous period of CLK, and Vdelta is the sigma-delta error
voltage left on the capacitors. Vdelta is a natural artifact of the
sigma-delta feedback techniques utilized in the Analog Modulator of the AD9260. It is a small random voltage term that
changes every clock period and varies from 0 to ± 0.05 × VREF.
The analog circuitry used to drive the input pins of the AD9260
must respond to the charge glitch that occurs when capacitors
CS1 and CS2 are connected to input pins VINA and VINB. This
circuitry must provide additional charge, qdelta, to capacitors
CS1 and CS2, which is the difference between the precharged
value, Q(n–1), and the new value, Q(n), as given in the following equation,
and CS2 when they are connected to input Pins VINA and
VINB. The nonlinear junction capacitance of Cpb1 and Cpb2
cause charge glitch energy that is nonlinearily related to the
input signal. Therefore, linear settling is difficult to achieve
unless the input source completely settles during one-half
period of CLK. A portion of the glitch impulse energy “kicked”
back at the source is not linearly related to the input signal.
Therefore, the best way to ensure that the input signal settles
linearly is to use wide bandwidth circuitry, which settles as
completely as possible from the glitch during one-half period of
the CLK.
The AD9260 utilizes a proprietary clock-boosted boot-strapping
technique to reduce the nonlinear parasitic capacitances of the
internal CMOS switches. This technique improves the linearity
of the input switches and reduces the nonlinear parasitic capacitance. Thus, this technique reduces the nonlinear glitch energy.
The capacitance values for the input capacitors and parasitic
capacitors for the input structure of the AD9260, as illustrated
in Figure 55, are listed as follows.
Qdelta = Q(n) – Q(n–1)
(8)
CS = 3.2 pF, Cpa = 6 pF, Cpb = 1 pF (where CS is the capacitance value of capacitors CS1 and CS2, Cpa is the value of
capacitors Cpa1 and Cpa2, and Cpb is the value of capacitors
Cpb1 and Cpb2). The total capacitance at each input pin is
CIN = CS + Cpa + Cpb = 10.2 pF.
Qdelta = CS × [VCORE–VCORE(delay) + Vdelta]
(9)
Input Driver Considerations
The optimum noise and distortion performance of the AD9260 can
ONLY be achieved when the AD9260 is driven differentially with a
4 V input span . Since not all applications have a signal preconditioned for differential operation, there is often a need to perform a single-ended-to-differential conversion. In the case of the
AD9260, a single-ended-to-differential conversion is best realized
using a differential op amp driver. Although a transformer will
perform a similar function for ac signals, its usefulness is precluded by its inability to directly drive the AD9260 and thus the
additional requirement of an active low noise, low distortion
buffer stage.
DRIVING THE INPUT
Transient Response
The charge glitch occurs once at the beginning of every period
of the input CLK (falling edge), and the sample is taken on
capacitors CS1 and CS2 exactly one-half period later (rising
edge). Figure 56 presents a typical input waveform applied to
input Pins VINA and VINB of the AD9260.

CLOCK
Single-Ended-to-Differential Op Amp Driver

Figure 56. Typical Input Waveform
Figure 56 illustrates the effect of the charge glitch when a source
with nonzero output impedance is used to drive the input pins.
This source must be capable of settling from the charge glitch in
one-half period of the CLK. Unfortunately, the MOS switches
used in any CMOS-switched capacitor circuit (including those
in the AD9260) include nonlinear parasitic junction capacitances connected to their terminals. Figure 55 also illustrates
the parasitic capacitances, Cpa1, Cpb1, Cpa2 and Cpb2, associated with the input switches.
Parasitic capacitor Cpa1 and Cpa2 are always connected to Pins
VINA and VINB and therefore do not contribute to the glitch
energy. Parasitic capacitors Cpb1 and Cpb2, on the other hand,
cause a charge glitch that adds to that of input capacitors CS1
There are two single-ended-to-differential op amp driver circuits useful for driving the AD9260. The first circuit, shown in
Figure 57, uses the AD8138 and represents the best choice in
most applications. The AD8138 is a low-distortion differential
ADC driver designed to convert a ground-referenced singleended input signal to a differential output signal with a specified
common-mode level for dc-coupling applications. It is capable
of maintaining the typical THD and SFDR performance of the
AD9260 with only a slight degradation in its noise performance
in the 8× mode (i.e., SNR of 85 dB–86 dB).
In this application, the AD8138 is configured for unity gain and
its common-mode output level is set to 2.5 V (i.e., VREF of the
AD9260) to maximize its output headroom while operating from a
single supply. Note, single-supply operation has the benefit of
not requiring an input protection network for the AD9260 in
dc-coupled applications. A simple R-C network at the output is
used to filter out high-frequency noise from the AD8138. Recall,
the AD9260’s small signal bandwidth is 75 MHz, hence any
noise falling within the baseband bandwidth of the AD9260
defined by its sample and decimation rate, as well as “images”
of its baseband response occurring at multiples of the sample
rate, will degrade its overall noise performance.

The second driver circuit, shown in Figure 58, can provide slightly
enhanced noise performance relative to the AD8138, assuming
low-noise, high-speed op amps are used. This differential op amp
driver circuit is configured to convert and level-shift a 2 V p-p
single-ended, ground-referenced signal to a 4 V p-p differential
signal centered at the common-mode level of the AD9260. The
circuit is based on two op amps that are configured as matched
unity gain difference amplifiers. The single-ended input signal is
applied to opposing inputs of the difference amplifiers, thus
providing differential outputs. The common-mode offset voltage
is applied to the noninverting resistor leg of each difference amplifier providing the required offset voltage. This offset voltage is
derived from the common-mode level (CML) pin of the AD9260
via a low output impedance buffer amplifier capable of driving a
1 µF capacitive load. The common-mode offset can be varied
over a 1.8 V to 2.5 V span without any serious degradation in
distortion performance as shown in Figure 44, thus providing
some flexibility in improving output compression distortion from
some ± 5 op amps with limited positive voltage swing.
To protect the AD9260 from an undervoltage fault condition
from op amps specified for ± 5 V operation, two 50 Ω series
resistors and a diode to AGND are inserted between each op
amp output and the AD9260 inputs. The AD9260 will inherently
be protected against any overvoltage condition if the op amps
share the same positive power supply (i.e., AVDD) as the AD9260.
Note, the gain accuracy and common-mode rejection of each difference amplifier in this driver circuit can be enhanced by using
a matched thin-film resistor network (i.e., Ohmtek ORNA5000F)
for the op amps. Resistor values should be 500 Ω or less to maintain the lowest possible noise.
The noise performance of each unity gain differential driver
circuit is limited by its inherent noise gain of two. For unity gain
op amps ONLY, the noise gain can be reduced from two to one
1.0F

beyond the input signals passband by adding a shunt capacitor,
CF, across each op amp’s feedback resistor. This will essentially
establish a low-pass filter which reduces the noise gain to one
beyond the filter’s f–3 dB while simultaneously bandlimiting the
input signal to f–3 dB. Note, the pole established by this filter can
also be used as the real pole of an antialiasing filter. Since the
noise contribution of two op amps from the same product family
are typically equal but uncorrelated, the total output-referred
noise of each op amp will add root-sum square leading to a
further 3 dB degradation in the circuit’s noise performance.
Further out-of-band noise reduction can be realized with the
addition of single-ended and differential capacitors, CS and CD.
The distortion and noise performance of the two op amps
within the signal path are critical in achieving the AD9260’s
optimum performance. Low noise op amps capable of providing
greater than 85 dB THD at 1 MHz while swinging over a 1 V to
3 V range are a rare commodity, yet should only be considered.
The AD9632 op amp was found to provide superb distortion
performance in this circuit due to its ability to maintain excellent distortion performance over a wide bandwidth while swinging over a 1 V to 3 V range. Since the AD9632 is gain-of-two or
greater stable, the use of the noise reduction shunt capacitors
discussed above was prohibited thus degrading its noise performance slightly (1 dB–2 dB) when compared to the OPA642.
Note, the majority of the AD9260 test and characterization data
presented in this data sheet was taken using the AD9632 op
amp in this dc coupled driver circuit. This driver circuit is also
provided on the AD9260 evaluation board since the AD8138
was unreleased at that time.

The outputs of each op amp are ac coupled via a small series
resistor and capacitor (i.e., 50 Ω and 0.1 µF) to the respective
inputs of the AD9260. Similar to the dc coupled driver, further
out-of-band noise reduction can be realized with the addition of
100 pF single-ended and differential capacitors, CS and CD.
The lower-cutoff frequency of this ac coupled circuit is determined by RC and CC in which RC is tied to the common-mode
level pin, CML, of the AD9260 for proper biasing of the inputs.
Although the OPA642 was found to provide the lowest overall
noise and distortion performance (i.e., 88.8 dB and 96 dB
THD @ 100 kHz), the AD8055 (or dual AD8056) suffered
only a 0.5 dB to 1.5 dB degradation in overall performance. It
is worth noting that given the high-level of performance attainable
by the AD9260, special consideration must be given to both the
quality of the test equipment and test setup in its evaluation.

REFERENCE OPERATION
The AD9260 contains an onboard bandgap reference and internal reference buffer amplifier. The onboard reference provides a
pin-strappable option to generate either a 1 V or 2.5 V output.
With the addition of two external resistors, the user can generate
reference voltages other than 1 V and 2.5 V. Another alternative is to use an external reference for designs requiring enhanced accuracy and/or drift performance. See Table IV for a
summary of the pin-strapping options for the AD9260 reference
configurations. Note, the optimum noise and distortion can only be
achieved with a 2.5 V reference.
Figure 60 shows a simplified model of the internal voltage reference of the AD9260. A pin-strappable reference amplifier
buffers a 1 V fixed reference. The output from the reference
amplifier, A1, appears on the VREF pin and MUST be decoupled with 0.1 µF and 10 µF capacitor to REFCOM. The
voltage on the VREF pin determines the full-scale input span of
the A/D. This input span equals:
Full-Scale Input Span = 1.6 × VREF
The voltage appearing at the VREF pin, as well as the state of
the internal reference amplifier, A1, are determined by the voltage appearing at the SENSE pin. The logic circuitry contains
two comparators that monitor the voltage at the SENSE pin.
The comparator with the lowest set point (approximately 0.3 V)
Figure 60. Simplified Reference
controls the position of the switch within the feedback path of
A1. If the SENSE pin is tied to REFCOM, the switch is connected to the internal resistor network, thus providing a VREF
of 2.5 V. If the SENSE pin is tied to the VREF pin via a short
or resistor, the switch is connected to the SENSE pin. A short
will provide a VREF of 1.0 V while an external resistor network
will provide an alternative VREF SPAN between 1.0 V and
2.5 V. The external resistor network may, for example, be
implemented as a resistor divider circuit. This divider circuit
could consist of a resistor (R1) connected between VREF and
SENSE and another resistor (R2) connected between SENSE
and REFCOM. The other comparator controls internal circuitry that will disable the reference amplifier if the SENSE pin
is tied to AVDD. Disabling the reference amplifier allows the
VREF pin to be driven by an external voltage reference.
The reference buffer circuit, level shifts the reference to an
appropriate common-mode voltage for use by the internal circuitry. The on-chip buffer provides the low impedance necessary for driving the internal switched capacitor circuits and
eliminates the need for an external buffer op amp.
The actual reference voltages used by the internal circuitry of
the AD9260 appear on the CAPT and CAPB pins. If VREF is
configured for 2.5 V, thus providing a 4 V full-scale input span,
the voltages appear at CAPT and CAPB are 3.0 V and 1.0 V
respectively. For proper operation when using the internal or an
external reference, it is necessary to add a capacitor network to
decouple the CAPT and CAPB pins. Figure 61 shows the recommended decoupling network. This capacitive network performs the following three functions: (1) along with the reference
amplifier, A2, it provides a low source impedance over a large
frequency range to drive the A/D internal circuitry, (2) it provides the necessary compensation for A2, and (3) it bandlimits
the noise contribution from the reference. The turn-on time of
the reference voltage appearing between CAPT and CAPB is
approximately 15 ms and should be evaluated in any powerdown mode of operation.

RESET PIN
The RESET pin is an asynchronous digital input that is active
low. Upon asserting RESET low, the clocks in the digital decimation filters are disabled, the DAV pin goes low and the data
on the digital output data pins (Bit 1–Bit 16) is invalid. In addition, the analog modulator in the AD9260 and internal clock
dividers used in the decimation filters are reset and will remain
reset as long as RESET is maintained low. In the 2×, 4×, or 8×
mode, the RESET must remain low for at least a clock period to
ensure all the clock dividers and analog modulator are reset.
Upon bringing RESET high, the internal clock dividers will
begin to count again on the next falling edge of CLK and DAV
will go high approximately 15 ns after this falling edge, resuming
normal operation. Refer to Figure 4b for a timing diagram.

The slight different ± full-scale input voltage conditions and
their corresponding digital output code for the 4× and 2× decimation modes can be attributed to the different digital scaling
factors applied to each of the AD9260’s FIR decimation stages
for filter optimization purposes. Thus, a + full-scale reading of
0111 1111 1111 1111 and – full-scale reading of 1000 0000
0000 0000 is unachievable in the 2× and 4× decimation mode.
As a result, a digital overrange condition can never exist in the
2× and 4× decimation mode and thus OTR being set high indicates an overrange condition in the analog modulator.
The output data format in 1× decimation differs from that in 2×,
4× and 8× decimation modes. In 1× decimation mode the output data remains in a twos complement format, but the digital
numbers are scaled by a factor of 7/128. This factor of 7/128 is
the product of an internal scale factor of 7/8 in the analog modulator and a 1/16 scale factor caused by LSB justification of the
12-bit modulator data.
CS AND READ PINS
The CS and READ pins control the state of the output data
pins (BIT1–BIT16) on the AD9260. The CS pin is active low
and the READ pin is active high. When CS and READ are
both active the ADC data is driven on the output data pins,
otherwise the output data pins are in a high-impedance (Hi-Z)
REV. B
Condition of Data Output Pins
The DAV pin indicates when the output data of the AD9260 is
valid. Digital output data is updated on the rising edge of DAV.
The data hold time (tH) is dependent on the external loading of
DAV and the digital data output pins (BIT1–BIT16) as well as
the particular decimation mode. The internal DAV driver is
sized to be larger than the drivers pertaining to the digital data
outputs to ensure that rising edge of DAV occurs before the
data transitions under similar loading conditions (i.e., fanout)
regardless of mode. Note that minimum data hold (tH) of 3.5 ns
is specified in the Figure 4 timing diagram from the 50% point
of DAV’s rising edge to the 50% of data transition using a capacitive load of 20 pF for DAV and BIT1–BIT16. Applications
interfacing to TTL logic and/or having larger capacitive loading
for DAV than BIT1–BIT16 should consider latching data on
the falling edge of DAV since the falling edge of DAV occurs
well after the data has transitioned in the case of the 2×, 4× and
8× modes. The duty cycle of DAV is approximately 50% and it
remains active independent of CS and READ.

CS
The state of the internal decimation filters in the AD9260
remains unchanged when RESET is asserted low. Consequently, when RESET is pulsed low, this resets the analog
modulator but does not clear all the data in the digital filters.
The data in the filters is corrupted by the effect of resetting the
analog modulator (this causes an abrupt change at the input of
the digital filter and this change is unrelated to the signal at the
input of the A/D converter). Similarly, in multiplexed applications in which the input of the A/D converters sees an abrupt
change, the data in the analog modulator and digital filter will
be corrupted.
For this reason, following a pulse on the RESET pin, or change
in channels (i.e., multiplexed applications only), the decimation
filters must be flushed of their data. These filters have a memory
length, hence delay, equal to the number of filter taps times
the clock rate of the converter. This memory length may be
–25–
AD9260
interpreted in terms of a number of samples stored in the
decimation filter. For example, if the part is in 8× decimation
mode, the delay is 321/fCLOCK. This corresponds to 321 samples
stored in the decimation filter. These 321 samples must be
flushed from the AD9260 after RESET is pulsed high prior to
reusing the data from the AD9260. That is, the AD9260 should
be allowed to clock for 321 samples as the corrupted data is
flushed from the filters. If the part is in 4× or 2× decimation
mode, then the relatively smaller group delays of the 4× and 2×
decimation filters result fewer samples that must be flushed
from the filters (108 samples and 23 samples respectively).
In 2×, 4× or 8× mode, RESET may be used to synchronize
multiple AD9260s clocked with the same clock. The decimation
filters in the AD9260 are clocked with an internal clock divider.
The state of this clock divider determines when the output data
becomes available (relative to CLK). In order to synchronize
multiple AD9260s clocked with the same clock, it is necessary
that the clock dividers in each of the individual AD9260s are
all reset to the same state. When RESET is asserted low, these
clock dividers are cleared. On the next falling edge of CLK following the rising edge of RESET, the clock dividers begin counting
and the clock is applied to the digital decimation filters.
OTR PIN
The second out-of-range detector is placed at the output of the
stage three decimation filter and detects whether the low pass
filtered data has exceeded full scale. When this occurs, the filter
output data is hard limited to full scale. The OTR signal is a
logical OR function of the signals from these two internal outof-range detectors. If either of these detectors produces an outof-range signal, the OTR pin goes high and the data may be
seriously corrupted.
If the AD9260 is used in a system that incorporates automatic
gain control (AGC), the OTR signal may be used to indicate
that the signal amplitude should be reduced. This may be particularly effective for use in maximizing the signal dynamic
range if the signal includes high-frequency components that
occasionally exceed full scale by a small amount. If, on the other
hand, the signal includes large amplitude low frequency components that cause the digital filters to overrange, this may cause
the low pass digital filter to overrange. In this case the data may
become seriously corrupted and the digital filters may need to
be flushed. See the RESET pin function description above for
an explanation of the requirements for flushing the digital filters.
OTR should be sampled with the falling edge of CLK. This
signal is invalid while CLK is HIGH.
MODE OPERATION
The OTR pin is a synchronous output that is updated each
CLK period. It indicates that an overrange condition has occurred within the AD9260. Ideally, OTR should be latched on
the falling edge of CLK to ensure proper setup-and-hold time.
However, since an overrange condition typically extends well
beyond one clock cycle (i.e., does not toggle at the CLK rate).
OTR typically remains high for more than a clock cycle, allowing it to be successfully detected on the rising edge of CLK or
monitored asynchronously.
The Mode Select Pin (MODE) allows the user to select one of
four available digital filter modes using a single pin. Each mode
configures the internal decimation filter to decimate at: 1×, 2×,
4× or 8×. Refer to Table VII for mode pin ranges.
The mode selection is performed by using a set of internal comparators, as illustrated in Figure 62, so that each mode corresponds to a voltage range on the input of the MODE pin. The
output of the comparators are fed into encoding logic where, on
the falling edge of the clock, the encoded data is latched.
An overrange condition must be carefully handled because of
the group delays in the low-pass digital decimation filters in the
output stages of the AD9260. When the input signal exceeds
the full-scale range of the converter, this can have a variety of
effects upon the operation of the AD9260, depending on the
duration and amplitude of this overrange condition. A short
duration overrange condition (<< filter group delay) may cause
the analog modulator to briefly overrange without causing the
data in the low pass digital filters to exceed full scale. The analog modulator is actually capable of processing signals slightly
(3%) beyond the full-scale range of the AD9260 without internally clipping. A long duration overrange condition will cause
the digital filter data to exceed full scale. For this reason, the
OTR signal is generated using two separate internal out-ofrange detectors.

BIAS PIN OPERATION
The first of these out-of-range detectors is placed at the output
of the analog modulator and indicates whether the modulator
output signal has extended 3% beyond the full-scale range of
the converter. If the modulator output signal exceeds 3% beyond full scale, the digital data is hard-limited (i.e., clipped) to a
number that is 3% larger than full scale. Due to the delay of the
switched capacitor analog modulator, the OTR signal is delayed
3 1/2 clock cycles relative to the clock edge in which the overranged analog input signal was sampled.
The Bias Select Pin (BIAS) gives the user, who is able to operate the AD9260 at a slower clock rate, the added flexibility of
running the device in a lower, power consumption mode when it
is clocked at less than 20 MHz.
This is accomplished by scaling the bias current of the AD9260
as illustrated in Figure 63. The bias amplifier drives a source
follower and forces 1 V across REXT, which sets the bias current.
This effectively adjusts the bias current in the modulator amplifiers and FLASH preamplifiers. When a large value of REXT is
used, a smaller bias current is available to the internal amplifier
circuitry. As a result these amplifiers need more time to settle,
thus dictating the use of a slower clock as the power is reduced.
Refer to the characterization curves shown in Figures 41–48
revealing the performance tradeoffs.

AD9260
The scaling is accomplished by properly attaching an external
resistor to the BIAS pin of the AD9260 as shown in Table IX.
REXT is normally 2 kΩ for a clock speed of 20 MHz and scales
inversely with clock rate. Because BIAS is an external pin, minimization of capacitance to this pin is recommended in order to
prevent instability of the bias pin amplifier.

POWER DISSIPATION CONSIDERATIONS
25
IDVDD/IDRVDD – mA
The power dissipation of the AD9260 is dependent on its
application-specific configuration and operating conditions.
The analog power dissipation as shown in Figure 64 is primarily
a function of its power bias setting and sample rate. It remains
insensitive to the particular input waveform being digitized or
digital filter MODE setting. The digital power dissipation is
primarily a function of the digital supply setting (i.e., +3 V to
+5 V), the sample rate and, to a lesser extent, the MODE setting
and input waveform. Figures 65a and 65b show the total current
dissipation of the “combined” digital (DVDD) and digital driver
supply (DRVDD) for +3 V and +5 V supplies. Note, DVDD
and DRVDD are typically derived from the same supply bus
since no degradation in performance results. A 1 MHz fullscale sine wave was used to ensure maximum digital activity in
the digital filters and the digital drivers had a fanout of one.
Note also that a twofold decrease in digital supply current results when the digital supply is reduced form +5 V to +3 V.

AD9260
Digital Output Driver Considerations (DRVDD)
The AD9260 output drivers can be configured to interface with
+5 V or 3.3 V logic families by setting DRVDD to +5 V or 3.3 V
respectively. The AD9260 output drivers in each mode are
appropriately sized to provide sufficient output current to drive
a wide variety of logic families. However, large drive currents
tend to cause glitches on the supplies and may affect SINAD
performance. Applications requiring the AD9260 to drive large
capacitive loads or large fanout may require additional decoupling capacitors on DRVDD. The addition of external buffers or
latches helps reduce output loading while providing effective
isolation from the databus.
Clock Input and Considerations
The AD9260 internal timing uses the two edges of the clock
input to generate a variety of internal timing signals. The clock
input must meet or exceed the minimum specified pulse width
high and low (tCH and tCL) specifications for the given A/D as
defined in the Switching Specifications at the beginning of the
data sheet to meet the rated performance specifications. For
example, the clock input to the AD9260 operating at 20 MSPS
may have a duty cycle between 45% to 55% to meet this timing
requirement since the minimum specified tCH and tCL is 22.5 ns.
For clock rates below 20 MSPS, the duty cycle may deviate from
this range to the extent that both tCH and tCL are satisfied.
These characteristics result in both a reduction of electromagnetic interference (EMI) and an overall improvement in
performance.
It is important to design a layout that prevents noise from coupling
onto the input signal. Digital signals should not be run in parallel
with input signal traces and should be routed away from the
input circuitry. While the AD9260 features separate analog and
digital ground pins, it should be treated as an analog component.
The AVSS, DVSS and DRVSS pins must be joined together directly
under the AD9260. A solid ground plane under the A/D is acceptable if the power and ground return currents are managed carefully. Alternatively, the ground plane under the A/D
may contain serrations to steer currents in predictable directions
where cross-coupling between analog and digital would otherwise be unavoidable. The AD9260/EB ground layout, shown in
Figure 76, depicts the serrated type of arrangement. The analog
and digital grounds are connected by a jumper below the A/D.
Analog and Digital Supply Decoupling
The AD9260 features separate analog, digital, and driver supply
and ground pins, helping to minimize digital corruption of sensitive analog signals.
Figure 66 shows the power supply rejection ratio vs. frequency
for a 200 mV p-p ripple applied to AVDD, DVDD, and DAVDD.
All high-speed high-resolution A/Ds are sensitive to the quality of
the clock input. The degradation in SNR at a given full-scale
input frequency (fIN) due to only aperture jitter (tA) can be calculated with the following equation:
90
85
DVDD & DRVDD
80
SNR = 20 log10 [1/(2 π fIN tA)]
75
PSRR – dBFS
In the equation, the rms aperture jitter, tA, represents the rootsum square of all the jitter sources which include the clock input,
analog input signal, and A/D aperture jitter specification. For
example, if a 500 kHz full-scale sine wave is sampled by an A/D
with a total rms jitter of 15 ps, the SNR performance of the A/D
will be limited to 86.5 dB.
70
65
60

The clock input should be treated as an analog signal in cases
where aperture jitter may affect the dynamic range of the
AD9260. In fact, the CLK input buffer is internally powered
from the AD9260’s analog supply, AVDD. Thus the CLK logic
high and low input voltage levels are +3.5 V and +1.0 V, respectively. Supplies for clock drivers should be separated from the
A/D output driver supplies to avoid modulating the clock signal
with digital noise. Low jitter crystal controlled oscillators make
the best clock sources. If the clock is generated from another type
of source (by gating, dividing, or other method), it should be
retimed by the original clock at the last step.

In general, AVDD, the analog supply, should be decoupled to
AVSS, the analog common, as close to the chip as physically
possible. Figure 67 shows the recommended decoupling for the
analog supplies; 0.1 µF ceramic chip capacitors should provide
adequately low impedance over a wide frequency range. Note
that the AVDD and AVSS pins are co-located on the AD9260

to simplify the layout of the decoupling capacitors and provide
the shortest possible PCB trace lengths. The AD9260/EB power
plane layout, shown in Figure 77 depicts a typical arrangement
using a multilayer PCB.
The digital activity on the AD9260 chip falls into two general
categories: digital logic, and output drivers. The internal digital
logic draws surges of current, mainly during the clock transitions. The output drivers draw large current impulses while the
output bits are changing. The size and duration of these currents are a function of the load on the output bits: large capacitive loads are to be avoided. Note that the digital logic of the
AD9260 is referenced DVDD while the output drivers are referenced to DRVDD. Also note that the SNR performance of the
AD9260 remains independent of the digital or driver supply
setting.

The decoupling shown in Figure 68, a 0.1 µF ceramic chip
capacitor, is appropriate for a reasonable capacitive load on the
digital outputs (typically 20 pF on each pin). Applications
involving greater digital loads should consider increasing the
digital decoupling proportionally, and/or using external buffers/
latches.

Figure 68. Digital Supply Decoupling
A complete decoupling scheme will also include large tantalum
or electrolytic capacitors on the PCB to reduce low-frequency
ripple to negligible levels. Refer to the AD9260/EB schematic
and layouts in Figures 73–77 for more information regarding the
placement of decoupling capacitors.
An alternative layout and decoupling scheme is shown in Figure
69. This layout and decoupling scheme is well suited for applications in which multiple AD9260s are located on the same PC
board and/or the AD9260 is part of a multicard mixed signal
system in which grounds are tied back at the system supplies
(i.e., star ground configuration). In this case, the AD9260 is
treated as an analog component in which its analog (i.e.,
AVDD) and digital (DVDD and DRVDD) supplies are derived
from the systems +5 V analog supply and all of the AD9260’s
ground pins are tied directly to the analog ground plane which
resides directly underneath the IC.
Referring to Figure 69, each supply pin is directly decoupled to
their respective ground pin or analog ground plane via a ceramic
0.1 µF chip capacitor. Surface mount ferrite beads are used to
isolate the analog (AVDD), digital (DVDD), and driver supplies
(DRVDD) of the AD9260 from the +5 V power buss. Properly
selected ferrite beads can provide more than 40 dB of isolation
from high-frequency switching transients originating from AD9260
supply pins. Further noise immunity from noise is provided by
the inherent power-supply rejection of the AD9260 as shown in
Figure 64. If digital operation at 3 V is desirable for power savings and or to provide for a 3 V digital logic interface, a 5 V to
3 V linear regulator can be used to drive DVDD and/or DRVDD.
A more complete discussion on this layout and decoupling scheme
can be found in Chapter 7, pages 7-27 through 7-55 of the High

AD9260 EVALUATION BOARD
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9260 Evaluation Board is designed to provide an easy
and flexible method of exercising the AD9260 and demonstrate
its performance to data sheet specifications. The evaluation
board is fabricated in four layers: the component layer; the
ground layer; the power layer and the solder layer. The board is
clearly labeled to provide easy identification of components.
Ample space is provided near the analog and clock inputs to
provide additional or alternate signal conditioning.
FEATURES AND USER CONTROL
• Jumper Controlled Mode/OSR Selection: The choice of
Mode/OSR can easily be varied by jumping either JP1,
JP2, JP3 or JP4 as illustrated in Figure 71 within the
Mode/OSR Control Block. To obtain the desired mode
refer to Table VIII.

• Selectable Power Bias: The power consumption of the
AD9260 can be scaled down if the user is able to operate the
device at a lower clock frequency. As illustrated in Figure 71,
pin cups are provided for the external resistor (R2) tied to
the BIAS pin of the AD9260. Table IX defines the recommended resistance for a given clock speed to obtain the desired power consumption.

The external reference circuitry, is illustrated in Figure 70. By
connecting or disconnecting JP10, the external reference can be
configured for either 1.0 V or 2.5 V. That is, by connecting JP10,
the external reference will be configured to provide a 2.5 V
reference. By leaving JP10 open, the external reference will be
configured to provide a 1.0 V reference.
• Data Interfacing Controls: The data interfacing controls
(RESETB, CSB, READ, DAV) are all accessible via SMA
connectors (J2–J5) as illustrated in Figure 71 within the data
interfacing control block. The RESETB, CSB and READ
connections are each supplied with two sets or resistor pin
cups to allow the user to pull-up or pull-down each signal to
a fixed state. R5, R6 and R30 will terminate to ground, while
R7, R28 and R29 terminate to DRVDD. The DAV and
OTR signals are also directly connected to the data output
connector P1. All interfacing controls are buffered through
the CMOS line driver 74HC541.
• Buffered Output Data: The twos complement output data
is buffered through two CMOS noninverting bus transceivers
(U2 and U3) and made available at pin connector P1 as
illustrated in Figure 71 within the data output block.
• Jumper Controlled Reference Source: The choice of
reference for the AD9260 can easily be varied between 1.0 V,
2.5 V or external, by using Jumpers JP5, JP6, JP7 and JP9 as
illustrated in Figure 71 within the reference configuration
block. To obtain the desired reference see Table X.
• Flexible DC or AC Coupled External Clock Inputs: As
illustrated in Figure 71, the AD9260 Evaluation Board is
designed to allow the user the flexibility of selecting how to
connect the external clock source. It is also equipped with a
playpen area for experimenting with optional clock drivers or
crystals.
• Selecting DC or AC Coupled External Clock:
DC Coupled: To directly drive the clock externally via the
CLKIN connector, connect JP11 and disconnect JP12. Note:
50 Ω terminated by R27.
AC Coupled: To ac couple the external clock and level shift it
to midsupply, connect JP12 and disconnect JP11. Note: 50 Ω
terminated by R27.
• Flexible Input Signal Configuration Circuitry: The
AD9260 Evaluation Board’s Input Signal Configuration Block
is illustrated in Figure 72. It is comprised of an input signal
summing amplifier (U7), a variable input signal commonmode generator (U10) and a pair of amplifiers (U8 and U9)
that configure the input into a differential signal and drive it,
through a pair of isolation resistors, into the input pins of
AD9260. The user can either input a signal or dual signal
into the evaluation board via the two SMA connectors (J6 and
J7) labeled IN-1 or IN-2.
The user should refer to the Driving the Input section of the data
sheet for a detailed explanation of how the inputs are to be driven
and what amplifier requirements are recommended.

• Selecting Single or Dual Signal Input: The input amplifier (U7) can either be configured as a dual input signal
inverting summer or a single tone inverting buffer. This
flexibility will allow for slightly better noise performance in
the single tone mode due to the inherent noise gain difference in the two amplifier configurations. An optional feedback capacitor (C9) was added to allow the user additional
out-of band filtering of the input signal if needed.

AD9260
For two-tone input signals: The user would leave jumpers (JP8)
connected and use IN-1 and IN-2 (J7 and J6) as the connectors for the input signals.
For signal tone input signal: The user would remove jumper
(JP8) and use only IN-1 as the input signal connector.
• Selectable Input Signal Common-Mode Level Source:
The input signal’s common-mode level (CML) can be set by
U10.
To use the Input CML generated by U10: Disconnect jumper
JP13 and Connect resistors RX3 and RX4. The CML generated by U10 is variable and adjustable using the 1 kΩ
trimpot R35.

APPLICATION TIPS
1. The ADC analog input should not be overdriven. Using a
signal amplitude slightly lower than FSR will allow a
small amount of “headroom” so that noise or DC offset
voltage will not overrange the ADC and “hard limit” on
signal peaks.
4. Test signal generators must have exceptional noise performance to achieve accurate SNR measurements. Good generators, together with fifth-order elliptical bandpass filters,
are recommended for SNR tests. Narrow bandwidth crystal
filters can also be used to filter generator broadband noise,
but they should be carefully tested for operation at highsignal levels.
5. The analog inputs of the AD9260 should be terminated
directly at the input pin sockets with the correct filter terminating impedance (50 Ω or 75 Ω), or it should be driven by
a low output impedance buffer. Short leads are necessary to
prevent digital noise pickup.
6. A low noise (jitter) clock signal generator is required for
good ADC dynamic performance. A poor generator can
seriously impair good SNR performance particularly at
higher input frequencies. A high-frequency generator, based
on a clock source (e.g., crystal source), is recommended.
Frequency-synthesized clock generators should generally be
avoided because they typically provide poor jitter performance. See Note 8 if a crystal-based clock generator is used
during FFT testing.
2. 8× Mode/OSR: JP1 connected, JP2, JP3, and JP4
disconnected.
8. Input signal common-mode level set by Trimpot R35 to
2.0 V: Jumper JP12 is disconnected and resistors Rx4 and
Rx3 are connected.
3. Bandpass filtering of test signal generators is absolutely
necessary for SNR, THD and IMD tests. Note, a low noise
signal generator along with a high Q bandpass filter is often
necessary to achieve the attainable noise performance of the
AD9260.
A low jitter clock may be generated by using a high-frequency
clock source and dividing this frequency down with a low noise
clock divider to obtain the AD9260 input CLK. Maintaining a
large amplitude clock signal may also be very beneficial in minimizing the effects of noise in the digital gates of the clock generation circuitry.
Finally, special care should be taken to avoid coupling noise
into any digital gates preceding the AD9260 CLK pin. Short
leads are necessary to preserve fast rise times and careful decoupling should be used with these digital gates and the supplies
for these digital gates should be connected to the same supplies
as that of the internal AD9260 clock circuitry (Pins 44 and 38).
7. Two-tone testing will require isolation between test signal
generators to prevent IMD generation in the test generator
output circuits.
8. A very low side-lobe window must be used for FFT calculations if generators cannot be phase-locked and set to exact
frequencies.
9. A well designed, clean PC board layout will assure proper
operation and clean spectral response. Proper grounding
and bypassing, short lead lengths, separation of analog and
digital signals, and the use of ground planes are particularly
important for high-frequency circuits. Multilayer PC boards
are recommended for best performance, but if carefully
designed, a two-sided PC board with large heavy (20 oz.
foil) ground planes can give excellent results.
10. Prototype “plug-boards” or wire-wrap boards will not be
satisfactory.
2. Two-tone tests can produce signal envelopes that exceed
FSR. Set each test signal to slightly less than –6 dB to prevent “hard limiting” on peaks.
